I wrote a thing about truth, glue, memory and a zine sale in a uni foyer. It has boots. It has Bevan. It has bricks.

I’m not one for footnotes, but I do like breadcrumbs...

Pop-ups, imperfections, and truth in art

This is my truth... or something like it

psychoblockie’s Substack

Come find us in the light...
Thursday 8th May, 11–5
📍 The Hub, London South Bank Uni
📍 100, 116 London Rd, SE1 6LN
A one-day pop-up of zines, prints, posters...
moments caught on walks, in light, in time.
Stories in brick. Stillness in the frame.
I'll be there with PULP, BRICKS, and other hauntings under psychoblockiepress.
Bring coins... curiosity... leave with ghosts.

Pleased to tell you I am still in the top 2% of the world's scientists as measured by citations (excluding self-citations) of publications over a whole career. Analysis by Stanford University, USA. I worked in #globalhealth before I retired from #lshtm and #lsbu in UK.

September 2022 data-update for "Updated science-wide author databases of standardized citation indicators"

See file 28oct2022_v5_update_release_notes.txt below for detailed explanation of differences between versions 5 and 4. They both use the same data but version 5 has more appropriate subfield assignment. Citation metrics are widely used and misused. We have created a publicly available database of top-cited scientists that provides standardized information on citations, h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions and a composite indicator (c-score). Separate data are shown for career-long and, separately, for single recent year impact. Metrics with and without self-citations and ratio of citations to citing papers are given. Scientists are classified into 22 scientific fields and 174 sub-fields. Field- and subfield-specific percentiles are also provided for all scientists with at least 5 papers. Career-long data are updated to end-of-2021 and single recent year data pertain to citations received during calendar year 2021. The selection is based on the top 100,000 scientists by c-score (with and without self-citations) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in the sub-field. This version (5) is based on the Sept 1, 2022 snapshot from Scopus, updated to end of citation year 2021. This work uses Scopus data provided by Elsevier through ICSR Lab (https://www.elsevier.com/icsr/icsrlab). Calculations were performed using all Scopus author profiles as of September 1, 2022. If an author is not on the list it is simply because the composite indicator value was not high enough to appear on the list. It does not mean that the author does not do good work. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT THE DATABASE HAS BEEN PUBLISHED IN AN ARCHIVAL FORM AND WILL NOT BE CHANGED. The published version reflects Scopus author profiles at the time of calculation. We thus advise authors to ensure that their Scopus profiles are accurate. REQUESTS FOR CORRECIONS OF THE SCOPUS DATA (INCLUDING CORRECTIONS IN AFFILIATIONS) SHOULD NOT BE SENT TO US. They should be sent directly to Scopus, preferably by use of the Scopus to ORCID feedback wizard (https://orcid.scopusfeedback.com/) so that the correct data can be used in any future annual updates of the citation indicator databases. The c-score focuses on impact (citations) rather than productivity (number of publications) and it also incorporates information on co-authorship and author positions (single, first, last author). If you have additional questions, please read the 3 associated PLoS Biology papers that explain the development, validation and use of these metrics and databases. (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.1002501, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.3000384 and https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.3000918). Finally, we alert users that all citation metrics have limitations and their use should be tempered and judicious.

@EddieMcCabe as prof at #lsbu had pleasure of attending many graduation ceremonies here. Truly beautiful. Under appreciated.
@tomnewby wow. I used to work at #lsbu but haven’t been there for 18 years as I’m retired and like in Switzerland and France. This is amazing. Beautiful. What a transformation. #sustainable
@asad thanks. I see you #epidemiology. I was at #lshtm for ten years before going to #lsbu. #urbanhealth was my field but retired many years ago. Still do a little…
